Maya Lin's Ghost Forest and the South Jersey forests where the giant trees were sourced.

Artist Maya Lin's 2021 installation Ghost Forest in NYC's Madison Square Park uses Atlantic White Cedars that were victims of climate change. Lin sourced the giant trees from the NJ Pine Barrens, where some forests are dying due to saltwater inundation after storm surges and rising sea-levels. Meet the artist and Bob Williams, the forester who helped her. Williams gives a tour in the Pine Barrens.
